Hey there

What a complete embarrassment! 🙂

🙏🙏:🙂

You beat me to it 😠 🤣 Jon, you absolute legend 🙏🙏🙏

I guess Jamaica taking first place was pretty much expected, though we didn't see a world record. I suppose that’s also what we expected, really... that time from Beijing just seems almost impossible to touch. 🙏

shadowstag said:So, I wonder if that record is actually ever going to be broken 🤷

it's tough

"I can honestly say I didn't see that coming, mostly because I was feeling pretty drained," Bolt said once the race wrapped up. "I figured, hey, let's give it a shot since everyone's watching, and it wouldn't hurt to try. So I gave it everything I had, and now I'm just completely wiped out.

"Perhaps next time I'll just stick to the 100m or the 200m on my own," he noted. "My technique was totally off. I couldn't even stay upright while running. It wasn't exactly a great performance, though it was a quick one."

🤣

Come on, Usain, don't mess around, you've got plenty of gas left in the tank 🙏 😁

brava Blanka, gold and so incredibly well-deserved 🙏 uh, what was that though? she almost missed the 206 mark, absolute nightmare 🤣

honestly, there’s no point even trying to set records against Bolt anymore; the guy is just from another planet. once he flew out of that curve, my only thought was whether he might actually break 19 seconds 🤣
yeah, I think everyone is really overhyping him a bit, he's definitely overrated ☕

I just finished watching the footage of the race, and honestly, I was sitting there in total disbelief the whole time. I kept finding myself muttering, "noooooooo, no, no way, there's no way this is a woman," 😲 🤣

Noah Ross7 said:I feel bad for Powell. Honestly, I really thought he might pull off an upset against such a cocky runner. But, he just fell short.😢

I suspect it’s mostly because he’s just in a league of his own. ☕Even right after the semifinals, it felt pretty obvious that Usain Bolt was untouchable; at that point, it seemed like it was just a matter of how much he’d shatter his own record. ☕
And I guess, why would you even call Bolt arrogant? 😕

haha, thanks! 👍 🙏🙏

I suppose I should probably mention that things have been feeling a bit unsettled lately. It’s hard to put my finger on exactly why, but there's just this lingering sense of uncertainty hanging in the air, I guess. Maybe it's just me, or maybe it's everyone else too, but it feels like we're all just waiting for something to shift. I don't know. It's a strange headspace to be in, honestly. kaže:
Božo keeps insisting that this thing is never going to crash, but honestly, watching Bolt over these last few matches... I don't know. He's just staring at the scoreboard like he's waiting for the inevitable. 🤣

If anyone happened to catch a recording of the race with some live commentary, would you mind uploading it? I'd really appreciate it. 🙏🙏 I was catching bits of it on the stream, but I can't help but wonder how he actually felt out there on the track. I guess you just can't tell from a screen... I wonder if he really felt the pressure from the competition. 🤣
I guess that 9.71 mark for Gay was pretty something, wasn't it? Maybe just a solid run. 😲I guess it’s just not quite there yet, unfortunately. It's not even close. 😲 To catch lightning in a bottle... I guess. Maybe it’s just wishful thinking, but sometimes you feel like you need something more than just talent to really outrun the fastest man on earth.

Well, I suppose it’s finally happening, isn't it? Just... wow. 🙏🙏🙏:S

They mentioned they’d be jumping straight into the race broadcast 🙂

Let’s go, legends—let’s take a stroll toward a new world record! 🙏🙏🙏

northerncanyon54 said:Bolt really does his best work in the middle stretch of the race, maybe somewhere between the 30m and 70m mark. I wouldn't even call him an elite starter; if he actually were, I guess he might have had the potential to hit a 9.60.

I don't know, I think he has the potential to hit a 9.50, maybe even faster... I mean, anyone who watched the finals in Beijing can see that's possible...

A light little story

👍

Nicholas Morales48 said:I mean, water polo is such a chaotic, bizarre sport in that someone just strolling past the pool can practically feel how much chaos is happening down there... 🤣 ... honestly, nobody else in the world follows this stuff quite like we do. 😁

That’s a pretty spot-on description, I guess.

lonebadger6 said:They face Mexico at 11:12 in the semifinals... then we're just waiting to see who we lose to in the bronze medal match... maybe it would be fitting if we kept the tradition alive and lost to the Americans, since they've never actually managed to snag a medal yet.

And I suspect that’s exactly how it’ll go.
🤣

all those Mexican panties featuring the 4C motif 🙏 🤣

Honestly, I don't really care if you guys think they're average or not. All I know is that our team has proven themselves to be total losers more times than I can count, and I'm just genuinely bummed out that I wasted over an hour watching a defeat I pretty much saw coming anyway. 🙄

William Roberts2 said:Unknown, you guys are jumping straight to calling me a troll. I guess all your arguments really just boil down to what I actually wrote here.

That’s just not true. You're lying; you're just trying to provoke a reaction, and there's actually a specific word for people who do that—a TROLL!!! ☕
